Yet another pardoned Jan. 6 rioter has been arrestedthe latest for allegedly threatening a man with a gun in a church parking lot.
Ryan Nichols, 36, a former Marine who bragged on social media that he was going to bring violence to the U.S. Capitol in 2021, has been arrested in Texas on a deadly conduct charge.
Harrison County Sheriff B.J. Fletcher told a local news station in East Texas this week that Nichols had followed a man out of church to the parking lot, where he proceeded to lift his shirt and flash a gun.
At one point, the guy had finished putting his kid in the backseat...Ryan Nichols took a step back, apparently, pulled his shirt up and... displayed his weapon and then grabbed his weapon.

(31,350 posts)just a matter of time before he murders someone. they won't be able to keep him in jail for long, and it's texas, so they'll probably hand him back his gun as soon as he bails out.
